Trump’s Take on Kristi Noem’s Dog-Killing Controversy: ‘She Had a Bad Week’
Donald Trump weighed in on the furor surrounding Kristi Noem’s book in an interview Tuesday, praising the South Dakota governor as a “terrific person” who “got hit hard” over the memoir’s contents, which included the now infamous revelation that she executed her pet dog, Cricket, in a gravel pit.
“She had a bad week,” the former president told radio hosts Clay Travis and Buck Sexton. “We all have bad weeks.”
Noem is thought to have significantly damaged her chances of being chosen as Trump’s 2024 running mate with the book, No Going Back, and the intense backlash it has received.
